Welcome to the Forum.


Nope, i like it because in 80km/h (~55mph) you cant hear the radio. It's the ultimate gig-mobile; Mini 1000, only 32 years young.

Hi Matti. Welcome to the forum from Peoria Illinois. Never be concerned about asking questions on the forum. These are super people and I think most if not all are willing to help when ever help is needed.

Hi Matti, and welcome from Ontario Canada!
I hope you don't live too far from our buddy Jani Peter, stay close to him and you'll learn from each other!
Your student model looks great.
Your Mini looks neat also.

I also hope you have discovered Mickey Adams' videos on YouTube. There's a man you can learn from!
Good Luck!
Bent
